Paperback, [PU: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform], In the course of his meteoric career as Secretary of State for the Home Department, the Right Honorable Topham Vinson instituted many reforms and earned the reformer's whack of praise and blame.

It is matter for thanksgiving that the majority of his indiscretions were unguessed while he and his held office; for he was never so unconventional as in pursuance of those enlightened tactics on which his reputation rests, or in the company of that kindred spirit who had so much to do with their inception., Anthologies (non-poetry)<

Author E. W. Hornung is perhaps best remembered for creating the unforgettably raffish criminal mastermind, Raffles.
